[BUG] option --include-path not recognized (pygraphviz)

setuptools version

57.4.0

Python version

3.8.5

OS

10.15.7 Catalina

Additional environment information

No response

Description

Posted the issue here:https://github.com/pygraphviz/pygraphviz/issues/361

Tried to install with --include-option and --global-option but it fails: pip install --global-option=“-I/usr/local/include/graphviz/” --global-option=“-L/usr/local/lib/graphviz” pygraphviz pip install pygraphviz --install-option=“–include-path=/usr/local/include/graphviz/” --install-option=“–library-path=/usr/local/lib/graphviz”

Expected behavior

I installed graphviz but it seems pip install pygraphviz doesn’t know where the graphviz is so I tried to include path to it with --include-path and global-options, but they are not recognizable.

How to Reproduce

brew install graphviz
pip install --global-option="-I/usr/local/include/graphviz/" --global-option="-L/usr/local/lib/graphviz" pygraphviz
pip install pygraphviz --install-option="--include-path=/usr/local/include/graphviz/" --install-option="--library-path=/usr/local/lib/graphviz"

install command help does not show any --include-path flag. /usr/local/include should be part of the system include path and so you shouldn’t need to specify headers, but if you need to, I think what you are looking for is probably the --include-dirs/-I flag for build_ext, which must be run to build the pygraphviz._graphviz C extension in the pygraphviz setup.py.

You can pass extra commands and options to setup.py before the install command with --global-option, so following the example in the pygraphviz documentation, try something like

pip install --global-option=build_ext --global-option="-I/usr/local/include/graphviz/" \
    --global-option="-L/usr/local/lib/graphviz" pygraphviz

I think what you are missing was the initial passing of build_ext to pip before the -I, -L flags. Worse comes to worse, you can always clone the pygraphviz repo, checkout the desired tag, and in the repo home run

python setup.py build_ext -I/usr/local/include/graphviz/ -L/usr/local/lib/graphviz --inplace && pip install .

This will manually trigger the build_ext command with the right flags, build the pygraphviz._graphviz C extension inplace (shared object in same directory as the source file) and then do a proper pip install of the package.

Just to add to the above, if you’ve installed graphviz via homebrew (as of 3.0.0) the paths are as follows.

pip install --global-option=build_ext --global-option="-I/opt/homebrew/Cellar/graphviz/3.0.0/include/" \
          --global-option="-L/opt/homebrew/Cellar/graphviz/3.0.0/lib" pygraphviz

EDIT: I ran into other issues after that, so if you’re using Conda as I was, it’s probably easier to just do

conda install --channel conda-forge pygraphviz
